Re: Pregnant GF
Blarg,
I'm not "pro-life". Abortion, if the woman wants it, is fine with me. I also don't set my standards for respect at just having a baby. I set my standards for respect at taking responsibility for one's own actions, something OP (and from the tone of this thread, about 90% of OOT) refuse to do in this situation.
The girl has accepted that she f***ed up. The dude has not. He tries to come up with excuse after excuse and STILL hasn't come back to give us any information. But the simple fact is that he's the guy being selfish. She's in school and is planning on having this kid. What is there for this guy to give up?
For what its worth, I think adoption would be a great choice here. But I think bailing on a girl who you claim to love just because YOU knocked her up is pretty low-class IMO. The least he could do is help her with whatever decision she decided to make, but he's too worried about being a crappy rounder and all his dreams being "crushed" to see the big picture.
